Being a reality TV star might come with glamor and recognition—but for Real Housewives of Miami cast member Guerdy Abraira, it’s also a mirror. And sometimes, what she sees isn’t easy to watch.

“Watching yourself back could be the most cringeworthy experience of your life,” Guerdy Abraira admits to Parents. “I had moments where I was like, ‘Damn, I do sometimes sound a little harsh,’ but that’s my tonality. It may seem like I’m being confrontational when I just talk in a matter-of-fact way.”
It’s that kind of introspection that sets Abraira apart in the often volatile world of reality TV. Rather than doubling down, she leans into the discomfort—and learns from it. “I’m realizing a lot of times there’s a loss in translation and a loss in intention—I’m learning from it and accepting it.”
Her commitment to accountability extends to her relationships as well. For Abraira, the ability to admit fault is a non-negotiable when it comes to friendship. “When you’re able to say, ‘You know what? You are actually right. I’m sorry, my bad’—that’s where friendships grow,” she explains. “But the moment someone thinks they always have to be right, then the system is rigged.”
This season, viewers will see her navigating shifting alliances and emotional confrontations—but Abraira suggests that growth, not drama, is the deeper story. “As you watch this season, know that listening and being open are very important for evolution to happen. You’ll see that being at the center of a lot of dynamic changes.”
Beyond the friendships and feuds, Abraira carries a powerful sense of responsibility—especially as a mother. With some scenes turning physical this season, she’s mindful of the message it sends, particularly to her two sons.
“I’m raising two biracial boys. You have to understand the kids are watching,” she says. “And there are some things that maybe some people can get away with because of whatever their privileges may be—but I have to be careful with how I act—because my kids are watching.”

It’s not just about public image—it’s about parenting with integrity. “You can’t tell them what not to do and then do it yourself [on camera]. The same grace would not be extended if our kids did that in the streets. I care about my kids and what they’re watching, and I will behave accordingly. I will always find my words.”
